Real Madrid star to be sidelined until October | OneFootball

La Liga giants Real Madrid are expected to be without the services of midfield standout Jude Bellingham until this coming October.

That’s according to Blancos insider Guillermo Rai of The Athletic, who has on Wednesday provided an update on the Englishman’s situation.

Bellingham is for his part set to go under the knife later today.

Following the conclusion of Real Madrid’s campaign at the Club World Cup, the 21-year-old has been pencilled in for a long overdue surgical procedure.

As much comes with a view to correcting a shoulder concern which has been hampering Bellingham throughout his time in Spain’s capital.

Xabi Alonso and his staff have long been aware that they will therefore be unable to count on a key figure in Real’s squad for the early weeks of the campaign.

And as alluded to above, this week, an insight into just how long Bellingham is likely to be sidelined has been provided.

As per a report from The Athletic:

‘Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham is aiming to return to action in October following shoulder surgery.’
